So, 7pm Victory bratwursts it is then.
October 5th, 2015 at 11:44 AM ^
I literally salivated after reading your post. I love the cheese bratwursts, but will eat any type.

ABC, please. And bring back Keith Jackson. Thanks.
October 5th, 2015 at 12:02 PM ^
"Whoa, Nellie!"
October 5th, 2015 at 12:18 PM ^
I actually looked him up on Wiki last week just to make sure he was still alive.
October 5th, 2015 at 12:28 PM ^
Whoa Nellie, I'm sure Keith is totally rocking his retirement.

I wish it was at noon
:( :(
October 5th, 2015 at 11:40 AM ^
85% of the UM fan base wishes the opposite of that.

noon kicks, but I am a parent of two. Legitimately watching a noon game live is a next to impossible task for parents of little kids. Saturday morning/early afternoon sets the tone for the weekend and if I am in front of the TV during that time things go south in a hurry. With the 3:30 kick, I can do a good fatherly thing before the game, feel good about how responsible and frankly awesome I am and then sit down with a few beers at a semi-reasonable time to start drinking. Works out so much better.

it is quite clearly old person logic. I have just accepted it now. I am old. (But in a twist, I don't want the noon kick because I am old and not the other way around).

Late afternoon is nap time for us.
October 5th, 2015 at 11:36 AM ^
I'm guessing it's the highlight game nationally for ABC at 3:30p with an A-list announcing crew.
October 5th, 2015 at 11:37 AM ^
I am not surprised it's at 3:30, but it will be an ABC game. No way does ESPN let this one get away.
October 5th, 2015 at 11:49 AM ^
They are the same company. ABC usually takes the premier game, so I hope it IS ABC.

3:30 it is!
Now coaches, please raise your hand if your defense is equipped to win this game.
Thank you. That will be all.

seems more anxious on the sideline this year than he has in the recent past, especially when his defense is on the field.

I am pretty sure that my wife will want me to go to this party that happens to be on that day and around that time, so now I have to make this cough and cold last another two weeks or so. I think I can sell it, or at least, it has worked in the past. Still, this is one I would have assumed to be a 3:30 PM start just by the way the slate was beginning to shape up.
October 5th, 2015 at 11:50 AM ^
Quick! Someone tell me a good Michigan bar to go watch the game in NYC? Or should I start a new thread??? I've even cooked up a good post title:
"Michigan Bars in NYC?"
October 5th, 2015 at 11:57 AM ^
get there early
October 5th, 2015 at 12:06 PM ^
Professor Thoms is a good one, but as noted above, get there early. Its not very big
October 5th, 2015 at 12:20 PM ^
October 5th, 2015 at 12:00 PM ^
My friend has the audacity to get married this day and right at 4 pm too which means I wouldn't be able to watch all of the game no matter what time slot it was. Might try to leave my phone off and just watch it in my hotel room that night
October 5th, 2015 at 12:12 PM ^
Even if both teams win this week? That's unfortunate. I'll be there and it'll be my first live Michigan game. Was just getting my signs prepared.
October 5th, 2015 at 12:21 PM ^
Gameday has happened for an afternoon game before. It doesn't happen very often but it has happened.
October 5th, 2015 at 12:46 PM ^
not that uncommon. They do it for SEC games that are on CBS, actually. Fowler is not even on Gameday anymore so they just ship Herbstreet off to where ever he is calling the game after the Gameday telecast. Also, the "primetime" crew will occassionally call a 3:30 game if there is nothing too great at night. Musberger and Herby called the Michigan State v. OSU 3:30 game two years ago and they called The Game 06 which was a 3:30 start as well.
I could see Gameday coming, but they don't want to do a repeat at the same campus. So, say hypothetically Michigan does not lose until the OSU game and OSU is undefeated it will likely be a Top 5 matchup. They would want to be there but if they come for this game that will be a problem. I think they will likely go to A&M for the Bama game or to South Bend for the SC game, that would be my guess.

Do you think the course still open up at 7am for tailgating?
October 5th, 2015 at 12:24 PM ^
Very happy about this. We have people coming in from out of town so this will allow us plenty of extra time to tailgate. Also allows an extra meal instead of just making breakfast burritos.

It's a perfect time. The crowd will be there is full, they'll be wired, and the game will end at night.
October 5th, 2015 at 12:44 PM ^
Hope the Big House will be rocking that day.

I can't wait to be there. Fraternizing with the enemy in East Lansing Friday night, then entering the Big House for the first time in my life on Saturday. Go Blue.
October 5th, 2015 at 4:23 PM ^
I have to think Gameday has been itching to get to Ann Arbor since Harbaugh was hired. I would like to think they will come if both UM and MSU win next Saturday. Can't think they'll want to do Columbus for the night game if Penn State still looks like a tire fire. (Plus it's easy for Herbstreit to get from Ann Arbor to Columbus for the night game.) The big competition would be from Baton Rouge for Florida - LSU, which is the 7 pm game on ESPN. (Have they been to Baton Rouge yet this season?)
